MELANIE BROWN (SCARY)

THEN: The first Spice Girl to marry and become a mom, Brown gave birth to
daughter Phoenix Chi (with then-husband Jimmy Gulzar) in February 1999. She
and Gulzar split a year later.

NOW: After a stint in Rent on Broadway, Brown, 32, moved
to Los Angeles and released the album L.A. State of Mind. Lately her focus has been on her 2-month-old, Angel Iris – who she says DNA tests show to be the daughter of Eddie Murphy.
